Rushing makes allusions, both direct and indirect, to important literary works. Without mentioning Plato, the 4306 Winds of Blame refers to his cave analogy when Isabel wonders if she has come to the point of "preferring shadow to reality." There are several references to Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, which anticipates her consequences of infidelity, a disregard of socially acceptable behavior, and commentary on family bonding.
